A fiery young queen and a cynical mercenary are thrown together when a sorcerer usurps their high king's throne.
Queen Ariane dreams of her goddess who warns that the high king has been murdered and his enchanted crown broken, the remnants stolen by a renegade prince. Despairing she rides deep into her overlord's realm - a land now ruled by the scheming usurper, Caswallon, the sorcerer.
Corin an Fol returns home after many years fighting in other people's wars. But he finds no solace - instead he is persuaded to seek out Queen Ariane and assist her in the struggle against Caswallon. But the sorcerer knows their game and sends his creatures to waylay them. Corin and his queen must learn to trust each other before the enemy arrives. That's not going to be easy - she has a foul temper, and he's not fond of royalty.

This story is well written, but at times I wished I had kept a journal with the character’s names just so I could keep up with all of the who’s who.
Narrator, Andrew McDermott, gives another 5-star performance. His range of voices for the different characters is top-notch! Also, his silvery voice is perfect for this genre. I could listen to him all day long! Just as a side note, I’d like to hear him do a book from a more contemporary setting. 🤞🏻

I have not listened to any other of the books. Although I did not have issues understanding this story, I felt I was missing some key backstory. I’m not sure this is the best book to start with. There is some incongruity, and some relationships that didn’t quite make sense, especially Corin’s infatuation with the queen. Despite and due to this, I’m curious to listen to more. In fact, next is Gray Wolf. It’s also a book 1, so I think I’ll get the backstory I crave.
This is the first book I’ve listened to by this narrator ( Andrew McDermott ). He has a stop-start style. He’d often pause after every few words regardless of narrative or character conversation. This made me have to concentrate more on the story than usual, and therefore never really drew me in. I found I was easily distracted or background noise would disrupt me and I kept having to re-listen to parts because I hadn’t taken in anything that was happening. Most characters were spoken with the same cadence and little variation for personalities. He did use accents to differentiate some characters, and his voices female voice were good. I think it would be a wonderful narration if not for the stop-start style.
There are no explicit sex scenes although sex is discussed and rape implied, no excessive violence or much swearing.
I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and voluntarily left this unbiased review.

The Crystal Crown has kept evil at bay in the Four Kingdoms. As the sorcerer's urging the young prince, Ariane's cousin and nominated heir, attempts to place the crown on his head. The crown burns the prince and he drops the crown which shatters. The shards of the crown are lost when the prince gathers them and flees. The shards of the crown are essential for the restoration of balance of good and evil. There are many threads and many players as the gods of Ansu prepare for war and manipulate the affairs of humans.
I love Andrew McDermott's narration. His voice and accent are perfect for this sword and sorcery fantasy. The vocal characterisations add so much to this fast paced and exciting adventure with truly nasty evil entities and much loved heroes. The foul mouthed Ariane is quite formidable and totally delightful. A female role model. I totally recommend these legends for all who love epic fantasy.
